my grandad james pow. strange to see him as provost. only remember him in retirement. even the firemen were smart dressed in those days. cool.

The days of my Childhood. Jackie Cooper was a great family friend. Will Reids son was in my class. Mr Brysons daughter Maureen was also in my class ( I think she was his daughter ? ) Doug Stanford used come round to the farm with his grocers van.
